This is an actual capture of a Blackjack game I just played. Anyone see anything wrong with this picture? And this is the third time this has happened.

246 points have been deducted from your account.
Shuffling cards...
You are dealt the 10 of diamonds and the
Ace of clubs
Blackjack!
The dealer has the 6 of clubs and the
2 of diamonds
for a total of 8.
The 8 of hearts gives the dealer 16.
The King of hearts gives the dealer 26.
The dealer busts.
You now have 0 points.

It's just not nice to piss off the dealer.

Seriously, I've never seen that. That's weird.

Hi.
It didn't happen to me before but my oppinion is that you should post this in the suggestions board so an admin is more likely to see it and see if there is a problem.
They might not see it in here. But it's very strange.

Does this really matter it's only a sodding game?

Hey Kl1964, I agree with Nikos, you might want to post where an admin can see it.

Goblin, you are right, it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. Just wanted to show people what it was doing. Thanks to all for the suggestion of posting it to suggestions, I'll do that.

I've been on the trivia game and have correctly answered many questions that carry a jack pot of over a thousand points but the damned thing only gives me 1 point and says, "if you were a premium member you would have won 1000 points." That's why I don't play anymore. I nearly yanked out all of my hair!

DKL1964. This has happened to me several times. I have sent e-mails to the admin to let them know it is happening, and I never get an answer. They don't even bother to acknowledge getting my e-mail. So good luck with the rant. I don't think it matters to them.

Raskolnikov I see that you aren't premium, neither am I.

However, the game is doing what it is supposed to. The extra points are for premium members, so it pays us just what we bet.

Actually, I really enjoy trivia. Especially because it's a good way for us mere mortals to get up to a million points at a time (of course, we can also lose them too).

kl1964. I just wanted to let you know that I saw this topic this morning on the boards and did send your message to our staff list. I can't promise results but the necessary people have seen your post and I believe will look into it for you.

Sorry I didn't let you know before now. I've been busy all day long rigging the Zone Icon voting polls! Oops, now the secrets out! *LOL*

Dan.

Harp, thanks! It's good to know the problem is at least being looked at.

This is still happening, it's happened to me twice today.

Could some kind community leader please move this topic to the zonebbs suggestions board where it should be?

Thanks.
Bob
p.s. I'm contacting my lawyer next week.

Oh that's a coding issue.
Lol...

I'm glad to see this has been brought back up again. It does still happen to me also, and after e-mailing admins and getting no response, and Dan has now brought it to the attention of staff, yet still no solution. It is really agrivating for us points mongers to get 21 in the first hand and yet lose the 500000 points rather than gain them.

yeah it happened to me too.
